What did you get at the Hobby Shop today?


Recommended Posts

Cleaned out some of the Hobby Lobby clearance shelves yesterday...

Testors 1/35 Sturmtiger for $18, original price $50

3 packs of .02 wire and 1 pack of .015 wire for 30 cents each.

Acrylic paint nozzle for my Aztek airbrush for $1.29 (regularly $10)

3 bottles of Acrylic Paint Cleaner for $3.95 each (regularly $6.59)

2 jars of MM Acryl paint

The biggest score was an Aztek A470 double action airbrush kit, with nozzles, hose, 4 paint cups, 2 siphon jars all in a wooden case for $61. The regular price was $170! I needed a replacement/backup airbrush anyway, and already use the Aztek A470 so this was a serious score, especially since the retail on JUST the airbrush is over $100.

Since this topic came up today and I just got home a couple of hours ago from the LHS I thought I would post. Seems like I cannot go into a hobby shop and come ut empty handed.

1 1/72 Hasegawa F-14 Tomcat

1 1/72 Hasegawa Dessert Storm Tornado

I know this sounds crazy but going back 3 months ago I built 1/48 only, with the exception of the odd 1/32 for fun. I was given a 1/72 Harrier by a friend and really enjoyed the build. Since then I have purchased about 20 1/72 kits and currently working on a Halifax.

I made it over to Bobe's Hobby House in Pensacola last week while on vacation. It sure was nice to be an honest to goodness hobby shop. It's been a long time since I've been able to walk around and gawk and drool all over the place. I picked up;

Aires 1/48 F-4Phantom II exhaust nozzles [last items needed for next Phantom project]

TAC Scale Dynamics Mk-82 USAF Bombs W/extended fuses 1/32

Aerospace Modeler Mag No. 10 [last issue from them]

1/35 DML German Maus

1/35 Trumpeter Challeger II

Warbird Tech Northrop F-5/F-20/T-38 book

I could have piced up a bunch more but I did not have a lot of room to transport them back in the car, but did a a good time checking all the goodies out. I can't wait to go back. Don M.

at the 12evilbay" hobby shop I won

1x 1:72 Prowler (Hase)

1x 1:72 MiG 17

1x 1:72 Fuji T-1

I was only after the Prowler but they came as a job lot... well its increased my stash by 300% ;-).. I know they are not the best kits (old) in the world but for the amount I paid am happy and they will allow me to continue to develop.......
